Summary: This projects objectives were: 1. Identify and characterize resistance in Malus accessions growing at the Sunrise Research Orchard to codling moth and leafroller. 2. Localize the genes that confer resistance to codling moth (CM) and leafrollers (OBLR). 3. Develop predictive genetic markers to identify codling moth and leafroller resistance in potential parents and seeding populations of the breeding program.
